Aesthetically significant as an example of Fremantle’s vernacular architecture. Typical single storey cottage dating from the first decades of the twentieth century. Historically significant as a representation of working people’s living conditions in the Fremantle area.
Single storey tuck pointed brick with rendered banding and Colorbond hipped roof residence. The roof has a brick and rendered chimney with corbelling and extends onto the verandah which is supported by timber posts, there is a cast metal frieze which is probably not original. There are timber double hung sash windows and additions to the rear. The following places form a significant group and contribute to the streetscape of Hampton Road; 194, 196 & 200.
Hampton Road was originally called Prison Road. It derives its name from John Stephen Hampton (1810-1869), the Governor of WA from 1862-68. He was previously Comptroller of Convicts in Tasmania. His son, G. E. Hampton, was Acting Comptroller-General of the Fremantle Convict Establishment. House, 194 Hampton Road was recorded on Lot 148 CSL 134 in Rate Books from 1930.
